Romans, Chapter 6

6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
6:2 God forbid. We who died to sin, how shall we any longer live in it?
6:3 Or are you+ ignorant that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
6:4 We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death: that like Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
6:5 For if we have become united with [him] in the likeness of his death, we will be also [in the likeness] of his resurrection;
6:6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be done away, it no longer to serve us as slaves to sin;
6:7 for he who has died is justified from sin.
6:8 But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him;
6:9 knowing that Christ being raised from the dead, dies no more; death no more has dominion over him.
6:10 For the death that he died, he died to sin once: but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
6:11 Even so reckon+ also yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
6:12 Don't let sin therefore reign in your+ mortal body, that you+ should obey its desires:
6:13 neither present your+ members to sin [as] instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your+ members [as] instruments of righteousness to God.
6:14 For sin will not have dominion over you+: for you+ are not under law, but under grace.
6:15 What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.
6:16 Don't you+ know, that to whom you+ present yourselves [as] slaves to obedience, his slaves you+ are whom you+ obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
6:17 But thanks be to God, that, whereas you+ were slaves of sin, you+ became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you+ were delivered;
6:18 and being made free from sin, you+ were made a slave to righteousness.
6:19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your+ flesh: for as you+ presented your+ members [as] slaves to impurity and to iniquity to iniquity, even so now present your+ members [as] slaves to righteousness to sanctification.
6:20 For when you+ were slaves of sin, you+ were free in regard of righteousness.
6:21 What fruit then did you+ have at that time in the things of which you+ are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
6:22 But now being made free from sin and being made slaves to God, you+ have your+ fruit to sanctification, and the end eternal life.
6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
